Android 4.2 for Nexus 7

:cyclops:
Is there any one cooking Android 4.2 for Nexus 7? :highfive:
4.2 in nexus 10 is only 2 days away so I believe 4.2 for Nexus 7 should be floating around some where...:fingers-crossed:

No. The Nexus 7 will not be getting the 4.2 update. :rollseyes:

Not possible. 4.2 and higher is/will be just completely incompatible with the nexus 7, no matter what. Google decided they didnt like the nexus 7 anymore

Not sure

So it will be in dev forum in 2 days for sure....:laugh:

Where are you getting this information or are you just making it up? The 7 will be first in line to get 4.2.

He's being facetious, since this is an asinine thread. Remember the adage- ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer? The OP is deserving of a facepalm, so it seems his naivety was played upon.

It has been proven, "facetious" and "satire" don't work on public forums.
Forums only activate the lowest 10 percent of available brain cells.
Only thing lower would be Yahoo news report reader comments.

The Question is Do you need Root Today.\?
You do not have to ask permission to root or not..With this being a nexus and knowing you made backups(well even if you did not) you can very easily go back to Stock or near stock.
I think google is going to skip the 42 update . They are may be afraid someone will have a heart attack caused by over excitment for the push of the file.. They will delay it to a less enthusiastic time...

HDMI out!

I can't help but think that we can somehow get this:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6499/...ix-slimport-microusb-to-hdmi-and-vga-adapters
to work with our Nexus 7....
Anyone try this or have any idea what we will have to do to make it work?

It's a no go I'm afraid. Nexus 7 simply doesn't have the hardware in order to make it work, been discussed on here a few times.

Have you tried it? I don't have a clue what hardware you are talking about, the operating system handles secondary displays, not the hardware. The Nexus 7 has OTG support which makes me think this could very well work.

Okay, I see that it does not work, but no one has really confirmed that there is no way of doing it. Hopefully someone can figure out a way to get video out on the Nexus 7, but right now it seems like it's not gonna work.

Maybe some application that would stream over usb to a client on the pc but it sucks as bad as it sounds....

This isn't mhl. I'm assuming it doesn't work either but..who knows until someone tries one.

Official source code not available for download yet. But found a not yet modded ROM in the One (M7) forum that is extremely stock like so now real work could start You can download it here

Just stumbled across this
I believe that it would only be possible by using cm10.1 base and a ROM off a phone with the same hardware *coughHTCBUTTERFLYcough*. That is my insight

Why did you dig up an old thread and not only do you need a similar hardware but you also need proprietary drivers made by HTC for sense *coughSOURCENOTRELEASEDcough*

Nexus S F2FS

Hi,
I just wanted to know that if anyone working on implementing f2fs into Nexus S device.
It could extend this unit life until 2015...
Regards.

Are you saying that my Nexus S will die before 2015 without F2FS?

This can improve performance on our device but sadly on our development forum we don't have anymore active rom and kernel devs to do that

This looks like they only added support for existing, but not creating any new ones...

It makes the read/write a bit faster than ext4 (as per my understanding), but so far it's not widely adopted and requires both ROM and kernel support.. This is the main hurdle for our device as development is dwindling..

We could beg Legolas from the nexus 7 forum to add the nexus s to his f2fs rom converter. His app supports nexus 4, 5 and 7.

Well i agree with that accept maybe a functional LTE, but like i said i don't need it. Will probably wait to be the second tester

Anything is possible, but by time a Dev has taken the time to port it over it would be more trouble for them then its worth.

No, the developer preview does a device name check before it will install. If you tried it would give you an error about wrong device.
